Default RE: CMP BF109F BUILDING THREAD

I`ll try and get some photos up soon. Been busy with a P-51. The more I look at the BF-109 the more I like it. It has a few issues like the trailing edge thickness. The size of the underwing radiators are a bit small. I plan on getting a detailed cockpit from dbalsa and modifying this plane quite a bit but overall I`d say it`s a good start. Not sure about what retracts to use. The way CMP has it set up the gears would not be at the correct angle so for those wanting the right look it will take some work. As for the engine I plan on useing a RCV but it seems like the front of the plane is big enough for just about any engine to fit inside. The spinner is huge. It`s like half a soft ball!
